Although I mostly hang the laundry up to dry sometimes in Toronto we get weather where it is almost impossible to get things like towels and sheets to dry. These little laundry balls get in between the clothes, seperate them and can decrease drying times between 30 and 50%. They come in packs of two and I recommend using between 4 and 6. I'm sure tennis balls and the like are another alternative. I bought these really intesesting laundry ‘balls’ at the dollar store recently.

I also toss a tennis ball or wool dryer ball in the dryer instead of dryer sheets. Oh - and Borax. I use it in every load as a laundry booster.
